I like Prescott a lot and think he is certainly a top QB in the SEC. I just don't know about the team he plays for. Sure, I can see MSU have an upset or two and give another couple of teams a scare. I can also see them losing some games they should win. They' re 6-6. 7-5 team still to me. I don't think Dak is good enough to carry a team on his back, and I think that is what it would take for them to be real contender.

I didn't realize driscoll is a rising rsjr. Seems like he's been stinking it up for at least 4 years. I suppose he could really turn it on in his jr season. Has happened before, but I would rather have Mauk and Thompson for sure. Those guys have shown "it" when put into the fire. He has only crumbled thus far.

I like Dylan but Im also scaried. Remember how nice it was last year not giving the ball away by ints? Not so much this year. Are we going to get clemtech DT or mizz. and central florida DT on a daily basis?

I think we will all be impressed with Dylan this year. This is his offense now and If he wants to be in the 2015 draft class he needs to make the most of it.

In no realm of reality should bama or uf's QB group be ranked ahead of ours this coming season, that's a crock of shit.

Driskell has done squat at uf, he's not a great QB, and their backups suck, and their OL sucks. The literally block each other. Thompson, as a back up, has beaten more ranked teams than Driskell, as a starter.

Why would bama's be ranked ahead of ours, they have 0 QB's who played any meaningful stats, let alone road wins, or wins against ranked opponents? This logic would be the same as me saying "Cam Newton had decent stats last year and beat some great teams, but Bortles is going to be better this year b/c he has potential." It's totally subjective and not based on actual results/games on an even level of competition.

An argument can be made for Thompson on anywhere from 2nd-5th, but having uf and bama ahead of us for the QB position is a joke.

Driskel led them to a BCS game. Dylan or Shaw ever do that? And I love Shaw. And no, Thompson hasn't beaten more ranked teams than Driskle. This post is a fail. It is subjective, but you're just stating wrong things for the hell of it.

Lol..Uf won in spite of Driskel...not because of him. He might be the most overrated QB in college football.

He has had another year to develop under Spurrier, and Thompson has shown he can be clutch as well. Don't write him off just yet. We will know come Aug. 28th, then finally all this crap will be over with.

^^^^THIS!

Lots of unknowns and if's this year at QB for a ton of schools, the one thing the all the starting QB's in front of us has is experience except bama, do not agree with this one. The backups for all the teams in front of us have experience except bama and flawda. I think Thompson has a much better chance of success, any of our backups for that matter with our OL as well as having Mangus and Spurrier in their ear as any flawda QB so I would put us ahead of them but hard to argue the rest until Oct IMO

You are seeing things with Garnet Glasses. Driskell, who has a QB rating over 130 the past two years, is a decent QB. See his stats here.

Dylan's rating is only slightly better and he has much less experience in SEC games than does Driskell. I don't think you can credibly argue there was no reasonable basis for rating Driskell higher coming into 2014.

Plus, Driskell is handicapped by playing in a moribund offensive system, while Dylan gets to play for Spurrier's offense. Finally, Dylan has mostly accumulated his stats playing OOC games.

As far as Alabama, Jacob Coker has received a lot of hype. Jimbo Fisher said he was better than anyone who has played at Alabama in recent memory . . . and they had some good solid QBs in the past five or six years. However, I agree that other than hype, there is not much to say why the Alabama QBs are ranked over Dylan.

Driskel:

214/340 passes is decent. Yea, it's 62% but 14 TD's to 10 INT's. That's Awful. And he's only thrown for 2271 yards in 20 career games.

He throws WAAAAAYYY too many INT's to TD's to be considered a good QB. Average at best.
